MICROSCOPIC – #flashfictionmagic

May 25, 2023 by Sheri

MICROSCOPIC – #flashfictionmagic Let your breath blow soft across the day. Let it grow, let it breathe, let the earth warm beneath your feet. Feed the animals and marvel at their forms. When the rain begins midmorning, watch the brave birds still perched on fence posts, keep half an eye on the shadows of the […]

THE SEA BREEZE – #flashfictionmagic

April 11, 2023 by Sheri

THE SEA BREEZE – #flashfictionmagic The seaward corner of the cabin creaked, and Mari’s gaze snapped toward the door, the tiny window, all the weak spots. Was the sea breeze blowing again already? She should have another three hours. Three hours to mend her nets, make fish head stew, perhaps have a nap. Before the […]

BLOOM – #flashfictionmagic

March 28, 2023 by Sheri

BLOOM – #flashfictionmagic When the earth bloomed, spread its petals far and wide like the flower it was, the world was changed. No longer a sphere. New York spread beside Hong Kong, Australia tucked next to the United Kingdom. Something new came out of the center. We called it the Circle, and within it, strange […]

BROKEN PROMISE -#flashfictionmagic

March 25, 2023 by Sheri

A BROKEN PROMISE – #flashfictionmagic She hit the alley floor with a grunt, rolling swiftly to rise. Her blades felt warm and sure in her hands, the crisp fall air sweeping her mind free of morning lethargy. Gaining her feet, she spun to meet his sword. Metal clashing rang against the walls. She pushed his […]

THE ROSE – #flashfictionmagic

February 24, 2023 by Sheri

THE ROSE – #flashfictionmagic It glimmered for a moment, like a sunset bursting free of clouds to wink and glow before subsuming once again. The light flickered again, then held steady. The Everrose was blooming, despite all her efforts. It’s deep scarlet petals scattered columns of light across the fields behind her house. Somewhere, she […]

I'm married to a musician who looks good in black, mama to three curious kids, and happy resident of a Cape Cod cottage in Ohio.
I write YA fantasy and am acquisitions editor at sparkflashfiction.com.

I discovered this tea at @ohioteaco thanks to @ro. I discovered this tea at @ohioteaco thanks to @ro.robinson.writes. I had no idea roasted chestnuts smelled that delicious! I feel like I’ve been missing out.😅 Every time I brew a cup I feel festive and cozy.
What’s your favorite winter tea?

The best news from our ultrasound is that she’s The best news from our ultrasound is that she’s a healthy, wiggly baby, but none of us are sad about another girl joining the family! 🤩

My agent and I have been discussing tropes, namely My agent and I have been discussing tropes, namely the ✨enemies to lovers✨trope. It’s always been my favorite form of romance, but she has helped me see it doesn’t fit every situation.😅

However, I am realizing that ✨enemies to lovers✨ is a lot more nuanced than I thought. 
Questions I have: 
Is it still ✨enemies to lovers✨ if only one of them thinks the other is an enemy? (Sorcery of Thorns)
Are there other versions, like 
✨irritated to lovers✨
✨suspicious to lovers✨
✨reluctant stalker to lovers✨ (my current favorite)

How do you view a common trope like this? Is it all just one big category to you? Or are there subcategories that you like?
